so at the end of the day what she still did was illegal?

[free_introspect]

well - barely - anyone and tons of people have made that mistake and have not been prosecuted

[rager_latina]

a lot of people have not been caught though.
and she lied about it......so she did break the law
plus not fining her would bring up contradiction about whether shes going free just because shes famous.
shes just the unlucky one. they need to find some way to get the message across to people

she's a scapegoat, but you have to wonder why Ken Leigh is free to do whatever the fuck he wants while she faces prison time. Her little crime spree only earned her thousands, while Ken Leigh flat out steals billions, not to mention that there was no victim in her crime, compared to the thousands of lives that Ken Leigh and Enron destroyed.

i agree. wasn't it him and his son who did exactly the same thing years ago? and they're walking free right now.

i think thats what i heard on the howard stern show this morning.

but still. she broke the law. 2 wrongs dont make a right in this case. people get away with this shit a lot. maybe by this they'll see that people get caught. maybe they;ll see it as a threat and stop themselves.

i hate to question you opinion, but how is she a scapegoat?

[nogloryinawar]

the prosecution has repeatedly said that they want to show that they will have no mercy on celebs

[rager_latina]

right..........but how does that make her a scapegoat.
shes a celebrity too. and there will be no mercy shown on her. either way, she broke the law. there is no reason why she shouldn't suffer the same consiquences that any other preson would recieve
